NPD DisplaySearch has noted this weekend that the iPad Mini is now outselling its bigger brother, the full-sized iPad.
Apple has doubled their display panel orders from component makers LG and AUO, from 6 million to 12 million.
The new product sells for $329 as a base model compared to $500 for the new fourth-generation iPad.
Says NPD: "The iPad Mini apparently is selling better than the new iPad 4. It seems people especially like the size...[it's] lighter, slimmer and easier to carry." Afterdawn completely agreed with this sentiment in our review.
Looking into the future, the group says 50 million iPad Minis sold could be sold next year.
